I have been asked to post directions to our track. Very straightforward…
Coming from Clane, turn right into St. Wolstens Secondary school and our track is located at the end of this road.

Coming from Maynooth/motorway, head towards Celbridge then turn right at Tesco and continue up this road going through 3 set of traffic lights then turn left into St. Wolstens Secondary school.

Coming from Dublin, turn left after the bridge and straight on to traffic lights, keep left and enter St. Wolstens school on left.

This year saw some of our masters athletes take part in the Great Ireland Run in the Phoenix Park. Simon Walsh, Michael Tynan, Wally Moore and Finola Moore all took part and all finished under the hour!! Vivian Fleischer also took part in the junior run and finished in the top 40. Well done to all. Next masters race is the Leinster Road Championship - venue yet to be decided - on 5th May. Masters men run 6k and masters women run 3k. Please give names to Finola if you are interested.

Aoife Sheehy was our only medal winner of the 2nd weekend of the National Indoor Juvenile Championships in Magherafelt. Aoife competed in the girls u19 1500m walk and took the silver medal in a PB time. This medal was richly deserved as she has trained hard over the winter. Well done Aoife.

Our other athletes who competed were very unlucky none more so than Ronan Power. Ronan jumped 170m a PB in the boys u17 high jump along with two other competitors for 2nd place but on count back, Ronan had one more fault than the others. They were given joint 2nd and Ronan was awarded 4th place even though he jumped the same height! This was very disappointing but no doubt Ronan will look for revenge in the outdoor championships!

Bryan Bottrill competed in the boys u18 long jump and finished in 4th place…this is just the beginning for Bryan and with more training over the summer we hope for a medal in the outdoors. Sinead Lawler, 3rd in the 60m last weekend, also competed in the girls u17 long jump and was placed 5th with a jump well below her PB. Sinead has lots of talent and I am sure we will see more records fall over the summer. Aiden Moloney competed in the boys u18 800m and finished in 6th place, beating an athlete who came in ahead of him in the leinsters! Well done to all.
